The Regulatory Authorities today, 23rd August 2016, publish a CRM Consultation Paper regarding proposed capacity requirement and de-rating methodologies.
This consultation follows on from the CRM decisions to date. The papers attach focus on the design of the methodology to determine the capacity requirement and the de-rating factors to be applied to capacity providing units. In response to stakeholder comments during previous CRM consultations the SEM Committee decided that the Regulatory Authorities should develop a methodology to determine the de-rating factors to be applied to interconnectors.
This consultation consists of three papers as follows:
1) Consultation paper – high level overview and tolerance bands
2) Appendix 1 – TSO capacity requirement and de-rating methodology
3) Appendix 2 – RAs interconnector de-rating methodology prepared by ESP Consulting
Responses to the consultation paper should be sent to Karen Shiels (Karen.Shiels@uregni.gov.uk) and Thomas Quinn (tquinn@cer.ie) by 17:00 on Wednesday 5th October 2016.
